Aim:

Apparatus:

1. ADS-SDA-86-STA kit
2. 8251 Study card
3. Adapter, Keyboard, Cables, Etc . . .

Procedure:

Transmission

1. Connect 8086 kit PC using RS232 cable.
2. Connect Power supply to 8086 kit and 8251 interfacing kit(only blue( 5v) and black(0v) lines   Power cable to power supply)
3. Connect 8251 to 8086 using 50pin and 26pin bus.
4. Short 5 & 6 pins of JP9 in 8251 kit
5. Keep the DIP switch in 1 & 7 on (8086kit), open TALK, and go to options select target device as 8086 and Connect.
6. Change dip switch into 1 & 5on, once reset 8086 kit.
7. Go to file →Download hex file 
8. G-4000(on system keyboard), we can observe the output on 8251 kit.
9. Remove RS232 cable from 8086kit and connect it to 8251, transmitted data displayed on PC Monitor

Recieving

1. Connect 8086 kit PC using RS232 cable.

6. Change dip switch into 1 & 5on, once reset 8086 kit.
7. Go to file →Download hex file 
8. Change the DIP switch into 1 & 7 on, once reset.
9. Remove RS232 cable from 8086 kit and connect it to 8251.
10. G-4000 (on 8086 kit keyboard) .enter
11. Give some input from system keyboard (Example press A, B, C, D enter),once reset 8086 kit That data will be received at 8086 kit at location FF00 (press E, enter address FF00 and press  Comma you will get the ASCII values of A, B, C,D).

;With the count calculated for various baud rates program is

;Data characters can be sent to 8251 on an interrupt basis.So 
;to send characters on interrupt basis the TxRDY pin of the
;8251 is connected to an interrupt input through PIC 8259.

Result:

The Transmission Of 8251 Is Studied And The Output Is Verified

Viva-voce questions:

1. In how many modes does 8086 microprocessor works?
2. Which port of 8255 is used for handshaking?
3. What are the major steps in key detection?
4. What is the use of look up table?
5. Which register is used to store the address of a port?
